    INTRODUCTION
o---------------------o
SNK is best known for its fighting games but it also has had its share of war
related games such as Ikari Warriors series and P.O.W. Mechanized Attack for
the Arcade and later the NES is no exception. You are a soldier sent to take on
soldiers and robots that are out to get you. This particular game reminds me of
Operation Wolf game as it is almost the exact game with different layout and
the ability to choose your stages when the option is given.

o---------------------o
       OPTIONS
o---------------------o
There are two options here:
Play with a controller or use the Light gun,
Press start or pull the trigger respectively.

Start off by shooting the soldiers walking in the water before they fire at you
then shoot the minibots flying across the screen too. The good part about this
game is that when you are fired upon, you don't take damage until they leave
the screen on their own accord. Some scuba soldiers will pop up directly in
front of you and start firing but like the others, no damage till they leave
by themselves. Big ships will appear and fire rockets at you that do massive
damage. Don't worry because you can shoot the rockets before they can hurt you.

When a battleship appears on the screen, shoot the cannons on the ship before
they turn towards you and blast rockets which you can destroy, there are mini
guns on the ship too. Keep on your toes and take them out. There are also mini
rocket launchers too to take care of. At the end is a helicopter that you can
start blasting on while its sitting. It will then fly off the screen and appear
in the foreground and shoot two rockets. Use a gernade to destroy one then
shoot the other one. Then continue shooting the helicopter till it is destroyed
and onto the next stage.

                       |  Level 2 (Beach)  |
                       O =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= O

Shoot the flying drones and the soldiers. Some soldiers will run along the
background and throw knives at you. Use gernades to kill them quick. Some other
soldiers will turn into robots. Others throw gernades. More soldiers appear in
front of the screen. Conserve your bullets because it's easy to run out if
you are trigger happy. At the end is no boss.

________________________________
You can choose to go to level 3 or 4 from here.

                       |  Level 3 (Dark Jungle)  |
                       O =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= O

The screen scrolls to the left and it gets dark at some times. To light the
screen up, shoot the icons that look like stars. Even if its dark, you can
easily shoot the enemy by aiming where the gunshot burts are coming from. Like
before, you can avoid damage by shooting the enemies before they leave. Some
soldiers will hang from upside down and start firing on you. There is an extra
whiskey bottle during the stage. As the screen stops scrolling, you get a scene
straight out of Platoon and Operation Wolf's books. You shoot enemies as they
approach you. Shoot any helicopters that come along with gernades. The screen
scrolls again. It'll get dark so light it up and shoot soldiers on their
bellies too. The screen will darken then lighten at the end.

Skip to stage 5

                       |  Level 4 (Jungle)  |
                       O =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- O

The screen scrolls right, its morally the same as Stage 3a except the screen
does not go dark. You'll also pass by a waterfall and lake. Some enemies will
pop out through the waterfall and shoots. There are also dogs that run by and
shoot rockets when they stop. SHoot them to skin them then let them be on their
way to conserve bullets. Along the way is a rocket launcer which are more
powerful than gernades. There is a crazy rocket man in front of a cave. Shoot
his rockets and shoot at him till he explodes. You might lose a life here.

________________________________
You can choose to go to level 6 or 7 from here.

                       O =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- O
                       |  Level 5 (Cave)  |
                       O =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- O

Basically the same as the other levels with dogs and soldiers and robosoldiers
that appear more often. There is a flak jacet to reduce damage from bullets.
A medical icon replenishes your energy. When the screen stops scrolling then
you'll have a face off with various enemies.


                       O =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- O
                       |  Level 6 (Tank Fight)  |
                       O =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- O

In between shooting the opening and closing targets on the side, shoot the
rockets before they come out. They alternate from left and right. Destroy
both targets and the tank will blow up.


                       O =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= O
                       |  Level 7 (Train)  |
                       O =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= O
Nothing new here to tell you except there is an extra life and a medical kit
on this level. The enemies are all the same as you faced before. At the end
there is an opening and closing target. While rockets come from everywhere.
The train will turn into a robot which is still shooting rockets. Destroy the
target and it is finished

________________________________
You can choose to go to level 8 or 9 from here.

                       O =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= O
                       |  Level 8 (Sewer)  |
                       O =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= O
More soldiers and robosoldiers appear and a new enemy which is an alien drone.
When the screen stops scrolling then you have a little face off with enemies.
A medical kit appears in the face off and helps you. When the screen starts
scrolling again, its the same old fighting. The screen stops scrolling again
and its just another face off which is longer.


                       O =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= O
                       |  Level 9 (Skies)  |
                       O =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= O
Now here is something new. Shoot down as many planes as you can and shoot the
rockets they may fire. Hold off the airplanes and you'll be off to the final
level.


                       O =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- O
                       |  Level 10 (Factory)  |
                       O =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- O
This level is just like the others. Added to the level is pillar turrets that
shoot rockets. The screen will stop scrolling and you'll get another
Operation Wolf/Platoon scenario where you pick off enemies coming from the
background. As the screen scrolls again, R2D2-like enemies in the background
will shoot rockets. More enemies fill up the screen. At the end when a door
shoes up, you go inside to face the last boss. Be sure you had gotten the
magazines and medical kits first.

The last boss you can call the Mother Brain. A rocket will come out the dark
on the left side. The opening and closing targets shoot rockets whenever they
open. Shoot them all quickly and as you destroy them, you have less rockets to
deal with. Destroy all targets and shoot the brain till it dies.
